"11/22/63" (Scribner) by Stephen King. Nov. 8

The most prolific and imaginative writer of our time delivers a whale of a book about the Kennedy assassination, wrestling with the big "What if?" question: What if somebody had stopped Oswald? Because it's King, though, you know the story won't be chilly and theoretical; the characters will talk like real people and the era in which it's set will come alive.
